    Description

    I am looking for help in my house in Ghent.
    I am renovating the complete second floor and attic and I want to build a garden closet.

    I am a 35 year old woman that lives alone. I have an invisible disability.
    You will have a room in the house and breakfast, lunch and warm diner.
    There is a bike to explore the city or take a 10 minute walk to the center.
    (3' walk to public transport)
    I will give you some recommendations.
    I often cook vegetarian, but I eat meat as well.

    I am a music lover. I love listening to jazz music and I play the piano.

    By traveling and working abroad I hope you will explore different ways of living.
    I hope I can give you a more open-minded view on things.

    I use lot of recuperation material for construction, maybe you will pick up some ideas from me.
    I think you will lift up your technical (construction) skills. ;)

    Help

    I look for a handy (wo)man who can do some sanding, woodworks, ... in my house.
    If a Workawayer has experience in carpentry or in construction it's a plus.
    Ideally he/she isn't afraid to stand on a ladder or hold a drilling machine.
